Show/hide NGUI Panel OnTriggerEnter/OnTriggerExit

[GantZ_Yaka]

Why this code doesnt work?

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3. public class AreaScript : MonoBehaviour {
4. public GameObject uiObject;            
5. void Start () {
6. uiObject = GameObject.Find("PanelTrigger1");   
7. NGUITools.SetActive(uiObject,false);
8.         }
9.     void OnTriggerEnter(Collider other)
10.     {
11.         NGUITools.SetActive(uiObject,true);
12.         }
13.         void OnTriggerExit(Collider other)
14.     {
15.         NGUITools.SetActive(uiObject,false);
16.     }  
17. }
18.  

Why its hard to find NGUI-tutorial of such an important thing as hiding/showing panels during entering the trigger?

Because you can't destroy objects from within a physics callback such as OnTrigger. Set a variable instead such s "hasbeenDestroyed = true", and check for it in the Update function.

What i must to do for enable HUD objects then i pass EnablerTriggerZone and disable HUD objects then i pass DisablerTriggerZone ?

Attach not working EnablerTriggerZone script. All Debug is fine, i see it all in console in time.

1. using UnityEngine;
2. using System.Collections;
3.  
4. public class s_BlueTrigger : MonoBehaviour {
5.         private GameObject Blue;
6.         public bool BlueTrigger = false;
7.  
8.         void Start ()
9.         {
10.                 Blue = GameObject.FindGameObjectWithTag("4_Blue");
11.                 Debug.Log("Blue Detected");
12.         }
13.  
14.         void Update ()
15.         {
16.                 if (BlueTrigger)
17.                 {
18.                         NGUITools.SetActive (Blue, true);
19.                         Debug.Log("Blue True");
20.                 }
21.         }
22.  
23.         void OnTriggerEnter (Collider Other)
24.         {              
25.                 if (Other.gameObject.tag == "Player")
26.                 {
27.                         BlueTrigger = true;
28.                         Debug.Log("Blue Triggered");
29.                 }
30.         }
31. }              

Why this not work? I newbie in C# Unity and NGUI. Plz make some big answer.
And tell me, why i cant use grid in realtime? It put objects in grid and sort them only at start. If i turn off and on components at Play Mode, the components not automatically sorted in grid, just activated in places there been disabled?

Sry for bad English.

Why don't you use Renderer.enabled = true/fales on this object ?

I already explained why this is not possible, hazzius:

Because you can't destroy objects from within a physics callback such as OnTrigger. Set a variable instead such s "hasbeenDestroyed = true", and check for it in the Update function.

This is just how Unity works. You cannot destroy things inside a physics callback. OnTrigger is a physics callback.
